Comments
Guide for use:
The number of lesions successfully dilated should be recorded for each percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) performed.
Successful dilation is where:
- residual stenosis is less than 10% following coronary stenting; OR
- residual stenosis is less than 50% after balloon angioplasty alone.
The value '99' is not for use in primary data collections.
